MISSION TWO - Week 8 | day 1

THANK YOU. A personal thank you to those who have been coming by to support me. That's what friends a for and what I love is that even though I havn't been the greatest visitor myself you guys have kept on coming by.

I REALLY APPRECIATE THAT.

A huge thank you to Suzette, Lynda, Michael, Mike, Christy, Joni, Debbie.

So onto the future. I'm really looking forward to the new shredder projects. I hope that I will still be able to contribute. AW has minimum requirements for shredder which starts next sunday. Unfortunately I will be on vacation until the 5th May 08 with no internet connectivity.

We'll have to wait and see what he has to say about that.

I have been training hard for many weeks straight and I'm going to use this as an opportunity to rest...weight training wise. I am a keen surfer and Cape St Francis is renowned as one of the best surf spots on the planet so...you can guess what I'll be doing a lot of, as "active rest"

Great chill time with my kids and my girl and her kids...at one of the most beautiful places on earth....can't wait.

So with a renewed mind and willing spirit I dedicate myself to plunging myself into battle once more...until I claim victory

VICTORY WILL BE MINE.

Hey Mr. Dougal! Hope that vacation will be the best ever and all will go as you want it to. Surfing could be the world´s hardest exercise too, so not much rest for the weary Dougal. I do look forward to being with you in the new future that is looming for some (hope it´ll be all of us), and know you´ll be one of the strongest. Wishing you all the very best.

Well I'll keep coming by to celebrate your victories and possibly to get a peek at some vacation photos. Man, you take some awesome vacations. You stay in some pretty swanky places. The area of town you stayed in when you were in California is WAY SWANKY. To me, THAT'S LIVIN'.

Hey Dougal,

I may not have commented for a long time but I have been reading your blog quite regularly to see how you are getting on. Will be sending you a few more comments now though. My head is cleared and things are moving again. Keep shredding mate and have a great vacation.

Take care,

Andrew

Wow sounds like it will be a great vacation. Thanks for the shout-out, even though I have been a little out of the loop myself lately. Hope all works out with you for SC 2.0, it wouldn't be the same without you!

dougal said...

Heya buddy, how are ya. Glad that you will be visiting again. Look forward to chatting.

dougal said...

Thanks Joni..I hope I can be part of 2.0, I believe I have something to contribute. I'll give you all a thought when I'm sitting on my board out past the backline with the sun on my back thinking about you guys at work. :-)

brat :)

dougal said...

LOL.

BTW, I heard from Adam...I'm out of SC 2.0, so I guess I'm on my own.

Joni said...

Crap that sucks. Well, you know you aren't actually on your own because we will still all be here so keep on shredding, stick to your mission, and I'll be here keeping tabs on you all along the way! Have a great day!

dougal said...

Thanks kid I know you'll be watching. OK I'm outa here. Surf's up.

"BTW, I heard from Adam...I'm out of SC 2.0, so I guess I'm on my own."

In all fairness mate, I don't believe your comment is an accurate description of the emails I sent you. I made it clear in both emails that 28 days of daily accountability was what was "required" and I can't go back on my word after the fact because it would not be fair to everyone else.

I also said you were not "out" and this does not have to be the end. There is only so much I can do man.
